abstract

With the increase in average age of the population, there is more and more interest in the changes in effects of medication in the older age group. In order to study the mechanisms of the changes in effect of drugs, a number of studies in animals isplanned in order to evaluate how the different steps leading to the eventual effect of cardiovascular drugs are affected by ageing.
